How the trade war led to Samsung and other South Korean companies' exodus from China

Press/Media: Press / Media

Description

Professor Julien CHAISSE, Associate Member of the Centre for Chinese and Comparative Law, explains that large South Korean firms have been gradually withdrawing from China for a number of years and have been able to leave on a managed basis. They are leaving to avoid a repeat of the political crisis that ruined Lotte’s China business, and to avoid tariffs on exports of their China-made products to the US.
